Business transfer solutions in Cyprus
The act of moving control from one management entity to another, which is called a business transfer, involves different approaches. Whether it is changing ownership, assets, moving the business, or transferring share capital, each comes with significant changes for those involved in the company.
Our business transfer solutions
Our business transfer services offer thorough plans to assist in different aspects of transferring a business in Cyprus. Whether it includes changing ownership, transferring assets, moving operations, or handling share capital, we provide customized solutions to fulfill your particular requirements and objectives.
Transfer business ownership
We have a solution available for transferring ownership of a business in Cyprus, which includes transferring control and decision-making power from one owner to another. This usually requires legal agreements and negotiations to ensure a smooth transfer of ownership rights, responsibilities, and assets. Possible options for this process include selling the business, transferring ownership to family members or employees, or merging with another company.
Transfer business assets
The way we transfer business assets in Cyprus involves moving or sharing both physical and intangible assets from one company to another. These assets include buildings, machinery, stock, intellectual property, customer agreements, and reputation. By carefully documenting, valuing, and following legal steps, we guarantee the correct accounting and safeguarding of assets throughout the transfer process.
Move business to new location
Our company provides a complete package for companies seeking to move to a different address. This includes meticulously organizing the physical move of operations, whether it's within the same city, across the country, or overseas. Our method aims to minimize interruptions in business activities, keep customer loyalty, and guarantee a seamless relocation of assets, personnel, and services to the new site.
Transfer share capital
The transfer of share capital in Cyprus is made easier by our solution, which allows the purchase, sale, or transfer of ownership stakes in a company through share swaps. This can be done through private deals between current shareholders, public offerings on stock markets, or as part of mergers and acquisitions. We guarantee compliance with securities laws and shareholder agreements, as transferring share capital affects ownership arrangements and voting privileges in the company.
Transfer agreement and documents
An agreement is needed for one company to move its assets and liabilities to another, called a Business Transfer Agreement (BTA). To move forward with this transfer and set up a meeting with a notary, the documents listed below are needed:
- Passport
- Utility bills of the company such as an electric bill or phone bill
- A document providing all of terms and conditions for business transfer
Further documentation might be required depending on the specific situation.
We provide help with gathering all required documents and determining key elements like market value, payment terms, and date of transfer.
